[GAMEPLAY] Yi's Alpha Strike not making Yi untargetable

Hi, Yi is one of my favourite, if not the favourite champion in league and I play him a lot. In last few months (i think it's since start of preseason 6), Yi's Q is not doing what it should. He is sometimes very dependant on using his Q properly (to avoid spell that does lot of dmg, to avoid being CCd, ...). And with this bug, I really can't make any shiny plays (sorry, it's Yi -> "plays") beacause of this bug. So basically, this bug makes sometimes make me targetable while in Q. To give an example, today I played against fed graves, so it was important to dodge his Q (or R). I timed it perfectly, so that i would be untergetable while Graves' Q comes back. But I still took (a lot of) damage from that Q and died because of it. Even my teammates said that I was in Q and his Q shouldn't have hit me. In the end of the game, I died while attempting to backdoor their inhibs and Nexus. And again, I took damage from Ekko's Q while it was coming back to him. Also, Ahri's often seems to ignore my untargetabilty and charms me anyway. I was thinking that maybe those Qs are timed badly, but in lot of games, when this situation happens, my teammates say that it is bugged. I saw many Alpha Strike bug reports on these boards and some of them are 12 months old, maybe older. You really should do something with it.

Thanks

I saw something like this. I was watching nb3 and he was in mid alpha strike against Aurelion and somehow her stun hit him even though it went off while he was untargetable.

Honestly, I don't think its a bug at all..i play loads of 'untargetable' assassins and an aoe is an aoe. youre not being targeted per-se its targeting the area around you doing the damage. Its been like this for ages. that's why yis always seem to drop dead almost unexpectedly. You cant be selected for targeting..not 'you take no aoe damage' its simple logic really.
